These are the thoughts and musings of a group of critical media studies students from DePaul University. Some of us are new to the field but we are all scholars who critically consider the world around us, and are ready to contribute to the body of knowledge on how media interacts with and helps shape our cultural world.

Gaga the new improved Madonna?
I know that everyone has thought the same thing since Lady Gaga has came into the music business that she is the new generation Madonna. I got to thinkning about Madonna and the breif topic of her from the video we watched. I also thought of Lady Gaga and the article that we read that had to do with Barbie. In the article, it talks about all the different Barbies out there and that they all have a postive image...there is no negative Barbie (Pregnant teenage Barbie, abortion Barbie, drug Barbie and the list goes on). I got to thinking of the image of Madonna and Lady Gaga and how they are totally different from the image of Barbie, and what every little girl wishes she coud look and be like. They set a new trend for the females out there that says you don't have to be a perfect lady in order to be successful and to be sexy. They are the new women that young woman look up to and admire for being so cutting edge and different.
